It seem not beeing possible to add a checkbox for GDPR Compliance to forms.

According to german law the user has to accept the submit of his data

 

Perfect would be a checkbox with a link to the policy and if the form only could be sent when this is accepted.

  Hi Lars,

  There is no separate option for GDPR checkbox but you can add a simple checkbox to Brizy contact form and make it required. Unfortunately, you can't add there a link but could be a solution for you if you add simple text.

  How do you add simple text within the form - so I can add a link to the Privacy Policy between the checkbox and the Submit button?

  Thanks

  Hi,

  Unfortunately, there is no option to add a link to the form. At least for now. We have this on our to-do list. Sorry about that :/

  You can add simple text using the checkbox field type: https://jmp.sh/Tx1YIVV I don't think that's what you need but it's the closest.

  While the function is not available, I have made a function to add the privacy policy as a link:

  

   

  Add this function to functions.php file:

  function wpb_hook_javascript_footer() {
  ?>
  <script>
  jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  jQuery(".brz-label:contains(Accept)").append("<span><a href='https://mydomain.com/privacy-policy' target='_blank'>&nbsp;privacy&nbsp;policy</a></span>");
  jQuery(".brz-label:contains(Accept)").css("width", "auto");

  });
  </script>
  <?php
  }
  add_action('wp_footer', 'wpb_hook_javascript_footer');

  ***It is very simple and can be improved ...

  I hope it can be useful to you!!

  Hi, how can I access to functions.php, via FTP?

  It will appear the checkbox and the text? Can I change the text?

  Hi Albert,

  Please consider this option to make your form GDPR compliant. Drag a Text element and place it just below the form and type the document name and add the appropriate link to the text. Please have a look at this page for an illustration. https://brizytest.online/signup-form

  Hi KC George,

   I've to insert the code in functions.php, but I've to change it via FTP o there is another way?

  If I do, will appear the checkbox under the form?

  I just don't understand how to put the checkbox and how to change the text close to the checkbox. In the illustration "by filling this form, you agree to our Privacy Policy..."

  Need help, 

   

  Thanks.
